Avast Antivirus is causing that.
Do you have any restrictions set in the windows “privacy” settings regarding file system access? Maybe it’s possible that your machine refuses to give relative/envvar path access, only absolute paths?
Also on another dev branch there is a try-catch around the line that was causing the crash. I thought it was in master already but apparently not.
